README
PyPI version CI License: MIT Python 3.12+ MCP Downloads
Turn Claude into your FPL analyst. Captain picks, transfer advice, rival scouting, chip timing, league predictions — powered by real-time FPL data.
Quick Start
Step 1 — Install
Requires Python 3.12+.
pip install fpl-intelligence
Step 2 — Connect to Claude Desktop
fpl-intelligence --setup
Step 3 — Restart Claude Desktop
Quit (Cmd+Q on macOS) and reopen. Look for fpl under the MCP servers icon (hammer icon).
Step 4 — Ask Claude anything about FPL
"Analyze my FPL team 5456980 — who should I captain, who should I transfer in, and when should I use my chips?"
That's it. Bank balance, free transfers, and chips are all auto-detected from your team ID.
Where's my team ID?
Go to fantasy.premierleague.com → click Points → grab the number from the URL:
https://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/YOUR_TEAM_ID/event/30
Your league ID is in the mini-league URL:
https://fantasy.premierleague.com/leagues/YOUR_LEAGUE_ID/standings/c

"Give me the full breakdown on team 5456980 — captain, transfers, everything"
"I have 2 free transfers and 1.5m in the bank. Who should I bring in?"
"Salah vs Palmer vs Saka — who's the best pick for the next 5 gameweeks?"
"I want to bring in Haaland for a -4. Is it worth the hit?"

"Scout my squad — who's nailed, who's at risk of rotation, any suspension danger?"
How It Works
FPL Intelligence connects to the official FPL API — the same free, public data that powers the FPL website. All data is real-time. See the full FPL API reference on Postman for endpoint documentation.
The server runs locally on your machine and talks to Claude Desktop via MCP. No API keys, no accounts, no data leaves your machine except FPL API calls.
Install from Source
git clone https://github.com/dohyung1/x402-fpl-api.git
cd x402-fpl-api
uv sync
Then use the full absolute path to uv and the repo in your Claude Desktop config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"fpl": {
"command": "/full/path/to/uv",
"args": ["run", "--directory", "/full/path/to/x402-fpl-api", "mcp_server.py"]
}
}
}
Find your
uvpath withwhich uv(e.g./Users/you/.cargo/bin/uv).
Troubleshooting
FPL API calls are blocked / 403 errors
The FPL API blocks requests that don't look like they come from a browser.
Test if the API is reachable:
curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}" \
-H "User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7)" \
https://fantasy.premierleague.com/api/bootstrap-static/
Returns 200? The API works — the issue is likely Claude Desktop's sandbox (see below). Returns 403? Your network is blocking it.
Claude Desktop sandbox: Claude Desktop may prompt you to approve network access to fantasy.premierleague.com. If you dismissed this, restart Claude Desktop and watch for the prompt. Check logs at ~/Library/Logs/Claude/ (macOS).
VPN / corporate network: Some networks block *.premierleague.com. Try disconnecting from VPN or switching to a personal network.
FPL API downtime: The API goes down around deadline time and between seasons (June-July). Test in your browser: fantasy.premierleague.com/api/bootstrap-static/
Server won't start / "Failed to spawn process" / command not found
First try re-running the auto-setup:
fpl-intelligence --setup
If that doesn't work, set it up manually:
Step 1 — Find the binary:
find ~ -name "fpl-intelligence" -type f 2>/dev/null
Step 2 — Use the full path in your config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"fpl": {
"command": "/full/path/to/fpl-intelligence"
}
}
}
Step 3 — Make sure you're editing the right config file:
# macOS — open the file directly
open ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
# Windows
notepad %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
Step 4 — Fully quit and reopen Claude Desktop (Cmd+Q on macOS, not just close the window).
Still not working? Check Claude Desktop's logs for errors:
- macOS:
~/Library/Logs/Claude/ - Windows:
%APPDATA%\Claude\logs\
Python version error: Requires Python 3.12+. Check with python3 --version.
Invalid team_id errors
Use your FPL team ID (a number like 5456980), not your username. Find it at fantasy.premierleague.com → Points → check the URL.
Still stuck?
Open an issue with your OS, Python version, the error message, and the output of the curl test above.
